   I just pointed out gdb needed to check the unloaded DSOs when handling
   the BPSTAT_WHAT_CHECK_SHLIBS and BPSTAT_WHAT_CHECK_SHLIBS_RESUME_FROM_HOOK
   events. It is a serious bug to me and it should be fixed in 5.0. I
   don't care how it is fixed.

But I, and I hope most of the other GDB maintainers, do care how it is
fixed!
